>Mr Musk said earlier this year that AI would allow "output" per Tesla worker to get "nutty high".

>But the push to use AI has led to soaring bills, as the cost of using these systems rises with demand. There are fears that staff are also wastefully using AI to carry out menial tasks in an attempt to demonstrate they are using it.

>Several companies are now seeking to rein in staff use. Uber, which had told employees to use AI as much as possible, recently limited usage to $1,500 per month, while Meta, Walmart and Coinbase have all said they will introduce caps.

>The limits mark an about-turn from the "tokenmaxxing" trends in which staff were measured by how many tokens, a unit of AI usage, they were consuming.

>A pull-back on corporate AI usage has stoked fears of a potential stock market crash. Heavy spending on AI infrastructure by labs has helped propel markets to new heights, but this investment is predicated on rapid adoption of the technology.

Drop what you have been building with Claude Fable 5 in the comments.

I recently learned that HTTP now has a standardized QUERY method (RFC 10008).

For years, we've done something like:

• GET for simple searches
• POST /search when the filters become too large or complex for a URL

QUERY is designed for exactly that use case:

• Safe (read-only)
• Idempotent
• Supports a request body

Example:

QUERY /products
Content-Type: application/json

{
  "category": "laptop",
  "brand": "Dell",
  "price": {
    "min": 1000,
    "max": 2000
  }
}

I'm curious whether in vibe coding; do they still generate POST /search, or do they suggest QUERY?

Can someone working as a software engineer (not vibe coder) give me explanation what is so hyped about it? Few past days I’ve been comparing Fable to Opus by running same prompt for same task. To be precise, I’d switch to opus, run prompt, create branch. Then clean the state again, switch to fable, and do the same thing. The branches are obviously slightly different, but I don’t see any meaningful differences so far. Doesnt seem to be worth to pay 2x.

Edit: my prompts are not too basic. I’ve tried comparing both for various tasks - coding (asking to implement jira ticket, planning, or asking it to dig holes at my plans.

> Would tech influencers' revenue improve through loop engineering ?

Highly likely

> Would your company improve through loop engineering ?

Maybe

> Would NVIDIA's revenue improve through loop engineering ?

Definitely

> Would AI providers' revenue improve through loop engineering?

Yes

Who's the sucker ?

This video shows the true and scary power of Fable 5. The model works for 3 hours and consumes the equivalent of 180 dollars in tokens, the result? A first person shooter template. The game is not fun because you can't die, the enemy bots are retarded, the buy menu is broken(you can buy the same gun many times), the main menu mentions a planting and defusing bomb mechanic that seems to be missing, you can only play as a counter terrorist, you can't pause the game(but it tells you that you can), the game is full of visual glitches and you can easily fall out the map. Obviously, the guy from the video overreacts and says the game it's awesome(he sells an AI newsletter were he helps you to use AI "better").

Now, this guy "only" consumed $180, I know there are people out there willing to squander thousands of dollars on Fable 5 to make the game of their dreams, so I expect that steam, itchio and other stores will be inundated with Fable made games in the next weeks and months. It will be difficult to sift through the slop. Interesting(or tragic?) times lay ahead.

This is why controlled H200 access makes more sense than blanket denial. Keep users tied to NVIDIA rails where possible, or watch them build local chips, local clouds, and local models until they stop asking.
